Zusammenfassung:Dissertation, Universität Potsdam, 2020
In this cumulative dissertation, I want to present my contributions to the field of plasmonic nanoparticle science. Plasmonic nanoparticles are characterised by resonances of the free electron gas around the spectral range of visible light. In recent years, they have evolved as promising components for light based nanocircuits, light harvesting, nanosensors, cancer therapies, and many more. This work exhibits the articles I authored or co-authored in my time as PhD student at the University of Potsdam. The main focus lies on the coupling between localised plasmons and excitons in organic dyes. Plasmon–exciton coupling brings light–matter coupling to the nanoscale. This size reduction is accompanied by strong enhancements of the light field which can, among others, be utilised to enhance the spectroscopic footprint of molecules down to single molecule detection, improve the efficiency of solar cells, or establish lasing on the nanoscale. When the coupling exceeds all decay channels, the system enters the strong coupling regime. In ...
